I lagg alot even tho i got low grapics on sro, but i was thinkin that lots oof my friends that have higher RAM lagg less or is it cuz they got better gfx card than me?
(im on laptop with a 256mb gfx -.- and 1 gb ram) so if i had 2 gb or more would i lagg lees?

I have 1GB ram, and no lag, also 8600GT, so i think SRO is more VGA eater

and you didnt mention what processor you have because...?

Because it all sucks

it at least helps us get a better understanding of your situation though..

AMD turion(tm)64 Mobile Technology ML -37 1.99GHz
ATI radeon xpress 200 128mb

I have AMD X2-3800 (stock 2Ghz O/C = 2.4Ghz ~ 2.6Ghz can get unstable BSOD random lock ups but you don't need to know that lol), 2GB ram, 6600GT, 250GB HDD and a nice O/C friendly MSI motherboard with Win XP-SP2, drivers etc and a stable internet connection. This should be up to running the game? I still get lots of lag in hotan, not so much outstide.

Try turning shadow detail to nothing this helps me lag a lot less in hotan and outside grinding the game has fits of lag at random. I find sometimes in a party (of up to) 8 you will be getting EXP/SXP controlling mobs, even KS'ing botters . Then boom several members just die or disconnect at the same time Just evil. Some places lag more like the caves, Yachal's room one spot in the first room (back left corner after the last piller). A few to many of us near or on it BOOM

I think most lag has something to do with the server traffic (not internet, mind you, the server network on JM's end) as long as you have a decent video card and good amount of RAM. I have an 8800GS, had a 7800GT, and always lag a little in Hotan although not quite as bad as it used to be.
